<font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"><b>PNG MNG
Construction Set 10 has been substantially rewritten

vspace="10" hspace="5" height="100" align="right"><b>Animated
PNG Support:</b> Create animated PNG documents
with all the flexibility of GIF animations, and none
of GIF's relentless limitations. Animated PNGs offer
true color, alpha transparency, millisecond timing
and leading-edge compression. More to the point, you
can use them in an HTML document just as you would
traditional GIF animations — they're supported by
all the current web browsers.<br>

<font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"> </font>
<li><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"><b>WebP
Support:</b> The original WebP support in PNG MNG
Construction Set managed WebP animations using the
same user interface as MNG documents, which was
somewhat complicated. WebP now has its own user
interface</font><font face="Helvetica, Arial,
sans-serif"><font face="Helvetica, Arial,
sans-serif"> —</font> it's vastly simpler. As with
animated PNG, WebP animations can be used in a web
page just like GIFs, and WebP includes variable
compression for situations wherein file size and
download times are an issue.<br>
<br>
</font></li>
<li><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"><b>Format
Conversion:</b> Convert between animated PNG, MNG
and WebP animations.<br>
</font> <font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"><br>
</font> </li>
<font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"> </font>
<li><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"><b>User
Interface:</b> Pretty much every function in the
application has been reviewed and improved. The
various processes that required that specific chunks
be selected to activate them now automatically
select all the chunks in a document window if no c
hunks have been explicitly selected. Numerous
excluded document types are now supported. Several
long-standing gremlins and demons are history.<br>
<br>
</font></li>
<li><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"><b>Photostack:</b>
Addresses several issues in the Photostack animation
generation window.<br>
<br>
</font></li>
<li><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"><b>Resize:</b>
The Resize window resizes the Image chunk offsets as
well as the image dimensions, so complex animations
remain correct when their dimensions are adjusted.<br>
<br>
</font></li>
<li><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"><b>Export
to GIF:</b> The Export to GIF functionality has
been enhanced, for those situations when you need <i>really</i>
mature technology. Some social media platforms, for
example, don't like animated PNGs.<br>

<li><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"><b>Application
Security:</b> Addresses a particularly stealthy
and pernicious memory issue which afflicts the
internal configuration logic and the themes used by
PNG MNG Construction Set. Left to its own devices,
this one could crash the application and potentially
compromise your Windows security. <br>

<ul>
<li><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"><b>Application
Security:</b> Addresses a particularly stealthy
and pernicious memory issue which afflicts the
internal configuration logic and the themes used by
Animation Workshop. Left to its own devices, this
one could crash the application and potentially
compromise your Windows security. <br>

<li><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"><b>PNG
Security:</b> Updates the primary PNG libraries
used by Animation Workshop to the latest release.
This addresses several potential security and image
quality issues. We urge all the users of our
software to keep it up to date and stay ahead of
file vulnerabilities... there are some really bad
people hiding under rocks as you read this, doing
everything they can to ruin your day.<br>
</font> <font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"><br>
</font> </li>
<li><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"><b>JPEG
Security:</b> Updates the primary JPG libraries
used by Animation Workshop to the latest release.
This addresses a potential security issue. <br>
</font> <font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"><br>
</font> </li>
<li><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"><b>Image
Libraries:</b> Updates all the image libraries
used by Animation Workshop to address a theoretical
bug that could have introduced unwanted artifacts at
the right edges of its graphics.<br>
<br>
</font></li>
<li><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"><b>WebP:</b>
Updates the WebP library to improve the appearance
of complex animations stored with lossy compression.<br>
</font> <font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"><br>
</font> </li>
<li><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"><b>Performance:
</b>Addresses a number of GDI and performance issues
that software developers never really stop meddling
with.<br>
<br>
</font> </li>
<li><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"><b>Documentation:</b>
Updates the documentation.</font></li>
